    NPR Spot

    I was sitting in traffic today and listening to NPR. A brief news spot came on regarding 4E and D&D in general. It was pretty nifty, although no information regarding game mechanics were discussed. Basically just compared MMO to some of the things that Wizards is trying with the DDI. The...

    Character Generator

    New Spidey 3 Trailer

    Just watched the new Spiderman 3 trailer on Comdey Central. I was worried that it was going to suffer from the "too many villains" problem that some of the batman movies did, but the trailer was pretty good. No sign of Venom (whom needs his own movie, imo) and a good balance between the sand...

    Hey guys. Every once in a while I try to track down old gaming buddies and that time is with us again. I'm giving a shout out to see if any of the Farthing brothers are out there (Tad, Travis, or Troy). While I didn't game with them that much, the three of them introduced to me gaming back in...
